Independence Revised

Unknown to the
people of the USA and members of Congress, President Obama has quietly put an
end to an ancient wrong. He has sworn
allegiance to HM The Queen in a brief ceremony that reinstates the USA as a
devolved entity within the United Kingdom.

This follows
the meetings held by Nicola Sturgeon of Scotland with US and IMF officials in
Washington in which personal discussions clarified a number of matters relating
to the EU and other obligations as well as a fireside chat between David
Cameron and The President.

In Whitehall
an in depth study of the various Euro treaties had concluded that certain
clauses because of their inconsistencies left open the opportunity for former
colonies and territories to be allowed should they re-engage as part of the UK.

The effect is
that not only the original thirteen colonies are covered but all the
territories etc. that they later controlled.
As the spear head of the expansion to the West was substantially led by Scots
and Irish this allows the USA as it is be part of Europe. This is said to have a number of advantages
to all parties.

One is
population control in the USA and a New Manifest Destiny. Because of the imminent water shortages and
crop reductions it is imperative to redirect population increase from the USA
to elsewhere, indeed reduction will occur but now can be managed.

The base line
figure for future population is said to be between 120 and 150 million, large
enough to service an advanced leading world economy and a related military
commitment to retain security. This
could be achieved by returning the surplus to Europe and other places under the
terms of the Schengen Agreement.

Also, if the
poorer elements were relocated to area of family or group origin then in the
USA average earnings, wealth and productivity would all increase sharply with
the related consumption and market benefits and reduced calls on benefit
expenses.

On the other
hand the return of Hispanics to Spain will give a boost to their economy,
albeit on a different basis. The same
can be argued for other parts of Europe where policy is that large scale population
growth is wanted to allow boosting public spending to procure differing
benefits in other ways.

In Scotland,
for example, the open door policy coupled with US returnees would soon increase
the population to a level greater than that of England with the accompanying
political effects bearing on the economic.

Takeover of
all Scottish land rights and state re-allocation to create a self sufficient
localised croft economy would be paid for by allowing each croft its own wind
turbine exporting surplus energy to England who will pay for the installations.

The
Scandinavian issue is more complicated.
But it is felt possible that the Norwegian capital fund and long standing
state facilities in other nations might accommodate a five fold increase. With modern systems the search for food that
drove people to the USA would no long apply, according to the food processor
industry.

There are a
number of other population groups. The
large Italian proportion could well return to Italy, albeit the loss of the
Mafia might have some effects difficult to foresee. For other peoples of Europe, there could be
localised issues in the Balkans, notably Greece.

It is Germany,
however, where a problem might arise.
This might be dealt with by dispersal on a farm by farm basis
reminiscent of the former idea of returning Germany to an agrarian economy.

Other sectors
of the population will need action on a case by case policy which will entail
flexibility. The African could be given
the option of staying or going to a location preferred. For the unknowns or
difficult cases the obvious solution is to provide state sponsored transport to
Australia.

One small
change is that the "Star Spangled Banner" will be dropped and
"Lillibullero" will replace it, version according to choice, see
Wikipedia.
